In the late 1980s, while studying for a master's degree in the United States, Indah watched the sitcom "The Cosby Show" and was fascinated by this never-before-seen form of television shooting. Yingda felt that this kind of drama was very fresh, and then germinated the idea of bringing this form back to China.
After Yingda returned to Beijing, she began to shoot sitcoms with Zhang Luo. He first found Wang Shuo, a celebrity in the cultural circle and film and television circle at that time, and wanted to invite him to complete the work of screenwriting. Wang Shuo quickly gave the script a name "I Love My Home" according to the ideas provided by Yingda, and the name Yingda was very satisfied.
Later, because Wang Shuo was too busy, he recommended Liang Zuo, a screenwriter who had written crosstalk, to write the script. Subsequently, Yingda asked two cousins, Yingzhuang and Yingning, to help. In this way, Liang Zuo and Yingzhuang undertook the screenwriting work, and Yingning not only had to pull sponsorship but also take care of the daily life of the entire crew, and in the case of such a tight manpower, the happiness brought by this TV series to the audience could not be less.

To say that the classic role in "I Love My Home", the first one has to talk about this, Fu Ming, the head of the Jia family, everyone knows that Fu Ming is a retired old bureau chief, and he always shows a habitual official. Although he is away from home, he is always idle and wants to "do something for the old", and the story of "I Love My Home" begins with his life after retirement. Many viewers said that it was through the role of Fu Ming that Chinese had a new understanding of the image of the old cadres.
The role of Fu Ming in "I Love My Home"
In fact, regarding the role of Fu Ming, it was initially prepared to be played by Zhu Xu, an old actor with a lot of experience in drama performance, but because of the problem of schedule, Zhu Xu failed to participate. Finally, director Yingda's father, Yingruocheng, who had served as vice minister of culture, recommended Wen Xingyu to the crew.
Wen Xingyu
Wen Xingyu, graduated from the Performance Department of the Central Academy of Drama, is a national first-class actor, a famous performing artist, and before his retirement, he was the vice president of the Central Experimental Drama Theatre and a leading cadre. Yingda is very satisfied with Wen Xingyu's experience and profession, and the only one is not satisfied with Wen Xingyu's age.
At that time, Wen Xingyu's age was 52 years old, and according to the requirements of the script, Fu Ming, the head of the Jia family in the play, was 67 years old, which meant that there was a 15-year gap between the actual age of the actor and the age of the character, which was not a small problem.
The white hair of Fu Lao, which the audience sees in the play, is actually the masterpiece of the makeup artist. So, is Wen Xingyu's unique hoarse voice the true color or specially created?
In order to play the role of Fu Ming, Wen Xingyu has made great efforts. Wen Xingyu first tried to innovate from the way he spoke. In the days that followed, he changed his tone and tone of voice almost every day and played with the actors, and asked the director Yingda to work with the staff to help him observe the audience's reaction.

One day, when Wen Xingyu was playing with Yang Lixin, he deliberately raised his tone, pinched his throat, and said "this" slowly, just after saying these two words, the audience could not help but laugh. The keen Yingda immediately captured this detail and said, "Elder Wen, this tone is a little interesting just now, you repeat it." Since then, this unique husky "grandfather cavity" has become a sign of the difference between the old Fu played by Wen Xingyu, and because of this unique tone, we remember this Grandpa Jia who always shows a sense of officialdom between his words and demeanor.
The protagonists in the film have their own characteristics and laugh points, and more than 20 years later, many classic bridges and lines are still fresh in people's minds. Not only that, there are many big names in the film who have made cameos one after another. It can be said that a "I Love My Home" almost gathered the "half of the country" in the film and television circle of that year!
